Ziiamencek, General- Sikorski laid stress upon the political importance of the fact that the Staff ;Cpllege would serve the armies of Poland and Czecho-Slovakia simultaneously. The closest collaboration of the-two nations was imperative, he said,1 not only because of their racial affinity, but also because of. their geographical position, and he admitted that' both nations had only latterly paid a veryhigh price for disregarding this principle. The two Governments had en-* tered now on the road of close collaboration, and the Staff College was an expression of this intention.
